 WATER PANEL CHANGE INDICATOR

The control keeps track of humidifier operation time. The yellow “Change

Water Panel” light flashes after a preset amount of running time has

elapsed. This running time is preset by the installer based on the humidifier

model and water hardness.

Refer to the Annual Maintenance section for instructions on changing the

Water Panel or call your heating and air conditioning dealer for service. Afterthe Water Panel is replaced, turn the Control knob to the “Test/Reset”

position until the green “Humidifier ON” light flashes, to reset the Water

Panel change timer.

TEST/RESET

The Test/Reset feature allows the humidifier operation to be checked even if

there is no call for humidity. See “Check the Humidifier Operation” on page 9.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Your humidifier is a precision system that will accurately maintain the RH in

your home. For every 2°F change in outdoor temperature, the Digital

Humidifier Control will automatically adjust the indoor RH by 1%.

The Digital Humidifier Control will accurately control the humidity in your

home to a maximum of 45% RH.

The RH Values in Table 2 are targets based on outdoor temperature and the

Digital Humidifier Control setting. The actual RH may vary due to conditionsin the home (cooking, showering, etc.).

MANUAL MODE

When installed in the Manual Mode (see Figure B – internal switch in “MAN”position and “M” in the display), it is important to anticipate a drop in outdoor

temperature and reduce the setting accordingly to avoid excessive

condensation. For example, with an outdoor temperature of 20°F the correct

setting will be 35%RH. If thetemperatureis expected to fall to 0°F, then merely

reduce the setting to 25% several hours prior to the temperature change.

See Table 1 forthe recommended settings. These settings, which are based on

years of research, represent a compromise between RH levels that would be

most desirable for comfort and humidity levels that are suitable for protection

of your home and to avoid condensation on your windows. For example, awintertime indoor RH of 50% may be considered ideal for comfort, but

unfortunately, it probably would result in condensation, which can cause

damage to your home. Observing the recommended RH levels on your

Humidifier Control is an important safeguard. Condensation of water on the

inside surface of windows in theform of fogging or frost is usually an indication

of too much humidity. This same condensation can occur in other areas in

your home, possibly resulting in damage.

Be sure to keep fireplace dampers closed when not in use. They provide an

excellent escape route for heat, as well as humidity.

On occasion, indoor moisture producing activities such as clothes drying,

cooking, showers, etc., may raise the RH level higher than it should be, even

though the Aprilaire humidifier is not operating. Telltale indications are

condensation or frost on cold surfaces such as windows, doors, walls, etc. If

such condensation persists for several hours, your home should be ventilated

to dissipate the potentially damaging excess moisture.

EFFECT OF WATER CHARACTERISTICS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR ALL MODELS

 WARNING

RISK OF SCALDING. Water temperature over 125˚F can cause severeburns and scald instantly. Shut off the hot water supply beforedisconnecting or tapping into any hot water supply line.

Your humidifier is designed to operate using hot, cold, hard or mechanically

softened water. (Hot water is required for Models 350 and 360 and

recommended for all models to ensure maximum performance.)

Water contains varying amounts of minerals. The residue remaining as a

result of hard water evaporation is primarily calcium and magnesium

components and is usually quite hard, scaly, and dense.

Residue from softened water tends to be soft and fluffy and has a greater

volume than hard water deposits. In either case, the service life of a Water

Panel evaporator will be the same. The Water Panel evaporator should be

changed at least once a year with the exception of Models 400 and 400M

which should be changed at least twice a heating season. In the drain-

equipped models, most of the mineral solids are flushed down the drain.Hot supply water, 140°F maximum, is recommended with drain type

humidifiers for increasing capacity and is required for heat pump and air

handler applications.

For best performance, we recommend that you replace the Water

Panel evaporator in your Aprilaire humidifier at least annually with

 the exception of Models 400 and 400M which should be changed at

least twice per heating season.

The “Change Water Panel” indicator light (Digital Control only) will blinkwhen it is time to change your Water Panel. See individual model instructions

for additional maintenance.

To purchase a new Water Panel:

• Call the installer of your Aprilaire humidifier.

This information is often found on your equipment.

• Call your heating and air conditioning dealer.

• Use our “Dealer Locator” at: www.aprilaire.com

• Look in the Yellow Pages under Humidifying Apparatus orHeating & Air Conditioning Contractors.

• If none of the above is successful and you still need information,

please feel free to write us.

• Purchase only Genuine Aprilaire Water Panels to maintain performance.

If your humidifier is equipped with a Digital Humidifier Control with Water

Panel change indicator, after replacing the Water Panel, turn the control

knob to the “Test/Reset” position until the “Humidifier On” light blinks to

reset its timer. (Blower must be operating and HVAC calling for heat.) Be sureto turn the control knob back to it’s original setting. If the “Humidifier On”

light continues to blink, your humidifier is in Test mode. DO NOT LEAVE THE

CONTROL IN TEST MODE OR HUMIDIFIER WILL NOT OPERATE.

1. Disconnect electrical power to the HVACand shut off water supply.

2. Disconnect the water line at the inletcompression nut.

3. Remove the in-line strainer from insidethe inlet side of the valve by using a small

nail or wire.

4. Flush the in-line strainer clean or replacewith a new strainer, Part No. 4004.

5. Reconnect the inlet water line.   Double Wrench to Prevent Leaking.

6. Disconnect the water feed tube at theoutlet compression nut.

7. Inspect the water feed tube by gentlyflexing it and looking for cracks or signs ofwear. Replace tube if it is cracked, brittle,

or has been damaged.

8. Inspect the orifice in the water feed tubeand make sure the small opening isunplugged.

9. Reconnect the water feed tube.  Double Wrench to Prevent Leaking.

10. Remove the drain line from the bottom of the humidifier. If applicable, flex itto loosen any mineral deposits or blockages. Flush the drain line with waterunder pressure to clear it of any debris, and slip it back onto the drain fitting.If drain line does not flow properly, replace it. Inspect the drain line to makesure it has a constant downward slope and is not flattened or blocked.

11. Turn on water supply and reconnect electrical power to the HVAC.

 WATER LINE INSPECTION AND SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: Periodic inspection and preventative maintenance of your total

heating system is important for efficient and safe operation. Your heating

contractor can service your humidifier when he services the HVAC system.

All models have a distribution tray above the Water Panel, which should be

inspected annually and cleaned of excess mineral deposits.

For Models 400, 400M, 500, 500M, 600 and 600M close the bypass

damper, which is a part of the humidifier, with the small damper handle.

Humidifier Control:

Digital Humidifier Control in Automatic Mode (see Figure A):

No adjustment is necessary.

Digital Humidifier Control in Manual Mode (see Figure B):

Set the knob to the “OFF” position.

Manual Humidifier Control (see Figure C): Set the knob to the

“OFF” position.
